All too often, Crossovers in this class look too gawky, stubby, tall and narrow, with strange, 'hall of mirrors' dimensions. In contrast, this CX-3 just looks right thanks to its cab-back body and long bonnet proportions. The overall effect is anything but cutesy and the coupe-like roofline gives it a real sporting stance.
Behind the wheel, it's obvious just how much of this design is derived from the brand's little Mazda2 supermini. Everything around you is familiar from that little hatch but the key difference with this CX-3 is this Crossover model's 50mm-higher driver's eyeline, delivering the loftier driving position and better all-round visibility that customers in this segment expect.
For us though, it's the seats that are most important here, height-adjustable of course and carefully designed for excellent support. In short, getting comfortable in this Mazda is as easy as you could ever imagine it would be in a car of this diminutive size. Once you've completed that process and taken a look around, there are a few things that'll stand out. First up is the deeply-cowled motorcycle-style central dial. The other defining interior feature lies not in what's included but in what's been left out. There's no centre stack dividing the front of the cabin - so no mid-mounted display screen or stereo system. That infotainment display has been re-sited onto the very top of the dash where it's placed more precisely into your field of vision.
There's certainly a greater feeling of spaciousness than there would be in a Mazda2, courtesy of a bit of extra roof height (this car's 40mm taller than its supermini counterpart) and the fact that the seats have been placed further apart. Parents will find that makes turning round to their rear-seated offspring that little bit easier. Talking of a seat in the rear, well two adults will be certainly be fine here, thanks in part to the efforts made by the designers in creating the slimmer front seatbacks that feature concave sculpting that frees up space for your knees. If you need more room than that, then you probably need to try the brand's slightly larger CX-5. The same comment applies when it comes to cargo space. Lift the light tailgate and this CX-3's 350-litre boot is inevitably dwarfed by the 503-litre capacity offered by its larger stablemate, but that total is sufficient to match the modest standards set by the class leader, Nissan's Juke.

Absolutely superb review. The only thing that I'd love to see removed, although I understand why it's there, is the obnoxious banner with e-mail and phone number in it, constantly present at the bottom of the video.
Thank you! We are getting the banner removed for our future videos.
Ah, I see now. Awesome, subscribed!
One of the best car reviews I've seen. Booking a viewing for this car and if all is well will be picking up the Mazda CX3!
Thank you
A brilliant presenter. Best car review channel on the net. Thanks for the insights and education!
Have a 2016, 35k miles, it's awesome. Plus 1 wheels and racing rain tires made it great on the roadcourse too here in NW Washington USA.
Looks like he's driving around my old place of Horsham West Sussex beautiful stunning place

Hi, I'm thinking of being a part time uber driver and I'm not sure what type of car to buy. I love the mazda cx3' however' I've never seen an uber driver using it. Is it a bad idea to use cx3 for uber?. How would you compare it to the likes of Toyota camry and Toyota Corrolla, mostly used for uber?
